ALL-BELLY BLADE FOR EFFORTLESS SLICING

The Breaking Butcher’s blade is all business, with a highly upswept trailing point for maximum cutting efficiency.

This unique blade shape allows for long, continuous cuts through large pieces of meat without the tip getting in the way. The generous belly lets you effortlessly slice and rock through tough joints and connective tissue, making it the ideal tool for breaking down large game or livestock. Whether you’re processing elk in the field or breaking down sides of beef in a commercial setting, this blade’s design helps you work faster and more efficiently.

AEB-L STEEL WITH A WORKING GRIND FINISH

The Breaking Butcher Knife’s blade is made from AEB-L steel, known for its exceptional edge retention, ease of sharpening, and superior corrosion resistance.

To complement this premium steel, we've left the blade with an 'as ground' finish to give ease of use when slicing through meat. With a thickness of .100″, this blade is robust enough to handle heavy-duty tasks while maintaining the flexibility needed for precise cuts. It's the perfect combination of performance and durability designed to withstand the demands of serious meat processing.

ERGONOMIC, CHUNKY G10 HANDLE

The Breaking Butcher boasts our most substantial and comfortable handle design to date.

Designed with professional butchers and serious hunters in mind, this handle is slightly larger to accommodate gloved hands and provide a secure grip during extended use. The full tang construction paired with durable G10 scales offers unparalleled strength and control. Small shelves on the handle’s sides provide additional grip options, ensuring comfort and precision whether you’re making delicate cuts or powering through tough sections.

VERSATILE DESIGN FOR MULTIPLE GRIPS

One knife, many grips — the Breaking Butcher adapts to your cutting style.

Whether you prefer a hammer grip for power cuts, a saber grip for precision work, or a reverse grip for unique angles, the Breaking Butcher’s handle is designed to accommodate your needs. The G10 scales’ ergonomic shape and texture provide a secure hold in any position, even when your hands are wet or bloody. This versatility makes the Breaking Butcher indispensable for a wide range of meat processing tasks.

EXCLUSIVE MKC KYDEX SHEATH

Each Breaking Butcher comes with a custom MKC Kydex sheath made in the USA in our shop in Missoula, MT.

The Breaking Butcher’s sheath features a built-in retention screw that customizes blade tension and allows for handle-down carrying. The sheath also comes with a Kydex clip that allows you to carry your knife on a pack or belt loop, either horizontally or vertically.
